Introduction	As life long residents of California, our family relocates with my husband's job. We now find ourselves living the good life in beautiful Colorado with our two children, two chihuahuas, and a feline friend! I am a 'forty something' mom of two, former 3rd grade teacher, and lover of all things apples and chocolate! Since childhood, I have always felt keenly aware of how short life is, and how we need to savor every day fully. The past few years have made me appreciate this fact all the more. Having been diagnosed with melanoma a few years ago, (I am currently skin cancer free!) experiencing my dad's unexpected passing, and my mom's recent passing after a year long battle with brain cancer, I am even more appreciative of each day we are given. Live well today, and savor every moment! (That includes eating the chocolate!) Ü
Interests	My latest interest is blogging and horseback riding! All time favorites include scrapbooking, writing letters the old fashion way via "snail mail", decorating, and tutoring children! I also enjoy tennis, running, and gardening.
Favorite movies	Somewhere in Time, Shawshank Redemption, Titanic, Apollo 13, Good Will Hunting, A Christmas Story..."You'll shoot your eye out kid!"
Favorite music	Everything from pop to my husband's classic rock
Favorite books	Anything written by Susan Branch and Erma Bombeck! :-)

Which is more important to you and why: flexibility or expandability?

Flexibility...as the saying goes, "Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape!" :-)
